14 “FHE EVENING sTAR, . FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1896—SIXTEEN ‘PAGES. FIVE ELECTORAL TICKETS ‘The Official Ballot in Alabama Will Contain That Many. Effect of Kolb’s Repudiation of Wat- son on the Sound Money Demo- crats and Populists. Correspondence of The Evening Star. BIRMINGHAM, Ala., October 7, 1896. Five electoral tickets and twenty-eight congressional candidates have been nomi- nated in Alabama. The offical ballot to be voted at the November election will there- fore contain more names than have ever before been presented at a national election fm this state. The electoral tickets are those of the democrats, national democrats, populists, republicans and prohibitionists. The last named, it is expected, will not poll over two or three hundred votes in the entire state, so that it really amounts to nothing. The regular democrats are now hopeful, since the action of Capt. Reuben F. Kolb, founder of the populist party in Alabama, and his chief Meutenant, Col. P. G. Bow- man, in throwing Watson overboard and coming squarely out for Sewall with Bryan and for the silver democratic nominees for Congress, of breaking the backbone of the middle-of-the-road populist element, and polling the majority of that party’s vote for the Bryan and Sewall ticket. Whether or not these hopes will be realized remains to be seen. This, of course, depends upon whether or not Capt. Kolb has lost the in- fluence that he once exercised over the pop- ulist party in this state. Middle-of-the-road , leaders assert that the rank and file of the populist party have lost confidence in Kolb and Bowman, and no longer follow them, and that therefore the action of those two ders will not seriously affect the Bryan pd Watson contingent. Capt. Kolb, on the other hand, says that since the an- nouncement in his paper, the People's Tri- bune, several days ago, of his change from Watson to Sewall he hag received any amount of letters from prominent populists all over the state congratulating him on his course, and saying that he has done the most sensible thing under the circum- stances. He feels quite sure that the bulk of the populist vote in the state will be cast for the democratic electoral ticket and for the congressional nominees of the dem- ocrats as well. Upon the course of the pop- ulists will to a large extent depend the re- sult in this state in November. Possibilities for McKinley. If the middle-of-the-road leaders see that Kolb and Bowman are making headway in inducing populisis to abandon Watson and take up Sewall it is safd that they may throw thelr strength to McKinley, first to rebuke Kolb’s action in deserting Watson and secondly to emphasize their cpposition to the democratic organization in this state, hey claim has so often swindled them at the polis. It is tigured that should is be reachod there is electoral ticket might mber. It is believed the scund money democrats see that McKinley needed only a compar- atively few votes to carry the state they would furnish them. This state of affairs is not at all without the boun-s of reason. A sohd repudlican party, supplemented by the muiddle-of-the-road populists and some sound money democrats, with a fair elec- . could come in very tear, even if it did ceed, landing Alabania in the y column. th the rank and file of the toward the democratic or- one of antagonism.

Kolb’s declaration has had effect in sev- al directions. It has aroused the middle- of-the-road leaders to more determined ac- tion to keep their forces in line for the Straight popullst electoral ticket, while at the same time it has caused not a few doubting democrats, who, while they were believers In sound money, hesitated to leave the party organization, to take their stand for Palmeéz and Buckner. The latter Say that they are now convinced that Bry- a populist, and that his electi be a triumph of populism, ¥ or two er Kolb’s change of base the Atlanta Constitution published a long edi- torial lauding him for hfs stand and char- r democrat than other long members of who stood up and fought for it when Koll was »pposing it, but who have fit in the "e campaign to support dianapols ti This statement has sed that element of sound money dem- oerats who are trying to support Bryan be- cause he is the regular nominee, and, ac- cording to the story of sound money lead- ers, has added recruits to the Palmer and Buckner ticket While Palmer and Buckner leaders do not hope to carry the state for their electoral ticket, they do expect to elect several Con- “Kressmen, and are exerting their efforts in that direction most especially. The nation- al democrats have placed congressional candidates in the field in all districts ex- cept the first and fifth. No nomination was made in the first district because the reg- ular democratic nominee is a sound money man. In the fifth district the sound money sentiment Is not sufficiently strong to war- rant the putting out of a candidate. It is in the second, third, sixth and ninth dis- tricts where the national democrats have the best chances to win. The republicans made no nominations either in the second or third districts, it being understood that they are to support the national demo- cratic nominees. In the sixth district J. R. Guin, the republican nominee, was with- drawn, and A. S. Vandergraff, the national democratic candidate, indorsed by the re- Publican district committee. In the ninth district Congressman T. H. Aldrich re- signed the republican nomination, it is said his withdrawal being in favor of Dr. Archibald Lawson, sound money demo- cratic nominee. No formal indorsement of Dr. Lawson, however, was made, though it is known that republican sentiment is strongly in his favor. Sound money demo- cratic leaders regard that they have a good fighting chance for Congressmen in ‘the fourth and eighth districts, with a fighting chance in the seventh. Congressional Nomirces. - The following is a complete sand correct Ust of the congressional nominees in this Btate: = First district—Democrat, George W. Tay- lor of Marengo; republican, Frank .H. Threet (colored) of Marengo. Second district—Democrat, Jesse F. Stal- lings of Butler; populist, J. C. Fonville of Crenshaw; “national” democrat, Thomas H. Clark of Montgomery. Third district—Democrat, Henry D. Clay- ton of Barbour; populist, E.C. Jackson of Lee; “national” democrat, G. L. Comer of Barbour. Fourth district—Democrat, Thomas S. Plowman of Talladega; republican, H. A. Wilson of Chilton; bolting republican, nominated by populists, W. F. Aldrich of Shelby; middle-of-the-road populist, J. E. Golsor: of Dallas. Fifth district—Democrat, Willis Brewer of Lowndes; populist and indorsed by repub- Heans, A/ T. Goodwyn of Elmore. Sixth district—Democrat, John H. Bank- head of Fayette: populist, G. W. Young- blood of Pickens; “national” democrat and indorsed by republicans, A. S. Vandergraft of Tuskaloosa. Seventh district—Democrat, W. I. Buliock of Franklin; republican, James J. Curtis of Winston; populist, M.H. Howard of De- Kalb; “national” democrat, George H. Parker of Cullman. Eighth district—Democrat, JosephWheeler of Lawrence; republican, Oscar R. Hund- ley of Madison; populist, D. W. Day of Morgan; “national” democrat, W. W. Calla- han of Morgan. Ninth district—Democrat, Oscar W. Un- derwood of Jefferson; populist, G. B. Crowe of Jefferson; “national” democrat, Archi- bald Lawson ee ie uaca conmbexes The regular democre! in all the districts; the national democrats in all but two; the populists in all but one, and the republicans in four out of nine dis- tricts. The latter have formally indorsed the populist candidate in the fifth and the national democratic candidate in the sixth district. This is the largest number of can- didates that ever ran for Congress at one election in the history of the state. Capt. R. F, Kolb and Col. P. G. Bowman, the well-known populistic leaders, have been invited by National Democratic Chairman Jones to stump the states of Indiana and Illinois for Bryan, and will do so. Capt. Kolb says that he cannot go west until after the 18th instant, ab he has a number of appointments out in this state to speak for the democratic electoral and congressional ticket. Col. Bowman _ will Probably go west before that time. These two leaders will spend the last days of the campaign canvassing the seventh district in this state for W. I. Bullock, democratic congressional nominee, against Congress- man M. W. Howard, populist. Se ee HIS LIFE TWICE IN DANGER. Two Unsuccessful Attempts to Kill Captain General Weyler. Private communications from Havana, Cuba, says the New York Journal, an- nounce that two attempts were made to as- sassinate Captain General Weyler less than two weeks ago. That beth attempts failed was due to ac- cident. ‘The first attempt was made on the even- ing of September 20, when the captain general ordered a cup of chocolate. A girl named Mercedes brought him one contain- ing a quantity of dynamite put up in the shape of an egg. The chocolate merely covered the top of the bomb. The pro- gram provided for the girl to dash the cup on the floor at his feet, in which case, it was calculated, an explosion would follow, sufficient not only to blow both Weyler and the girl into a thousand fragments, but also to wreck the palace. The girl, however, allowed the cup to fall from her hands in- stead of dashing it down with force, and there was not sufficient concussion to cause an explosion. There were twenty arrests as a result of this attempt and a number of suspected ones fled to Hayti in order to evade prose- cution. The Second Attempt. The second attempt was made, the com- munications say, two nights later, when a dynamite bomb was placed in the mattress on which the captain-general slept. At- tached to It were two thread-like wires which communicated with a battery. In disrobing Weyler’s foot became entangled in the wires and this led to the discovery of the plot. The news of the attempts was suppressed, as a strict censorship is maintained over the telegraph and mail. The method adopted to send news to-this country is both unique and original. A dealer in postage stamps in Havana sent to a stamp dealer here a piece of pasteboard, on which were a dozen or two Spanish stamps under which were placed the respective prices per dozen. The dealer here delivered the stamps to the gentle- men who had ordered them. Before being sealed at Havana the piece of cardboard was handed to the cersor, who said it os- tensibly contained nothing of an objection- able character, and the card was sent on its way. The Letter. The stamp dealer here, who is probably an innocent party in the transaction, at once turned the card over to the individual who had ordered it. The latter then re- moved the outer layer of paper, under which was written the matter wished to be communicated. A literal translation of the communication reads: HABANA, Sept. 23, 96. Dear Friend—The events of the last week have been horrible. The attempt against the life cf the dog El Coyote have been dis- covered. The girl Mercedes did not fulfill her ion. The cup fell, but the explosive did not go off. Fortunately the girl did not know who put the eggs in the cup. Of the suspects more than twenty have been ar- rested. * * * The other attempt was much better. Four pieces of gelatine had been placed inside of the mattress of the chief's bed, and were connected with fine thread-like wire, covered with silk. The ends of the wire were exposed (for connec- tion with battery), and the brute on going to bed entangled his feet with the ends of the wire, and upon endeavoring to disen- tangle himself discovered the plot. * * * The signature and some portions of the communicaticns are suppressed. Where the first asterisks appear in the translation there fs a reference to the men who had fled to Hayti, and the latter asterisks des- ignate a space devoted to relating how future communications will be sent and in- structions to the sympathizers here. Nervousness Fails the Conspirators. “I have no hesitation in giving you this matter,” the gentleman who received the communication said yesterday, “because this means of communication cannot be made use of again. “Regarding the girl Mercedes, I will say that she comes from an ignorant, family who are devout Catholics. The family is loyal to the Spanish cause, and the girl was chosen as one of the close attendants on the captain general. One night within the palace gates a man was introduced to the girl as a priest. He remained about the palace for several days, and never missed an opportunity to work upon the feelings of the girl. He finally informed her that he feared an attempt would be made to poison the captain general that night. The poison, he expiained, was to be placed in his chocolate, and she had the opportunity to save his life by dashing the cup at Weyler’s feet when she went to serve it to him. The girl in her ignorance believed him. She became nervous at the last moment, and allowed the cup to fall out of her hand. The girl was placed under arrest, but was quickly released.” a al NCH LOT SOLD. A SIX- A Tiny Square of Ground, but the Countess de Brazza Paid $100 for It. The New York World says: The smallest lot ever sold in this clty changed hands yesterday. It is’ six inches long and six inches wide, and tke purchaser paid $100 for it, which is not quite $3 a square inch. This bit of real estate is on the south side of 88d street just west of West End avenue. The purchaser is Cora S. de Braz- za Savorgnan, better known as the Coun- tess de Brazza. The Countess de Brazza built a house at No. 304 West End avenue. When It was Practically finished a survey was made and it was found the building encroached on the property of Philip Schell of No. 308 West 83d street. There had been a blunder somewhere, but it wasn’t so important to discover how it was made as how to remedy it. The thirty-six square inches of real estate is back from the street. It wasn’t of any Perticuler use to Mr. Schell, but so long as he owned it there was a cloud en the ttle of the countess to the property. Her lawyers sought Mr. Schell. He agreed to sell the little piece of ground. How much did he want for it? Mr. Schell didn’t know. He didn’t care abont the bit of land, but he didn’t like the trouble of making the transfer. His wife was away, and it would be a bother to him and to her. Finally Mr. Schell said he thought $100 would be a fair price. The countess’ law- yers said she would be very glad to “pay _ — and so the transaction was con- cluded. ———_+e-—____ Arrival of Prince Khilkoff. The steamer Belgic arrived at San Fran- cisco Wednesday afternoon from Hong Kong and Yokohama. Among the passen- gers was Prince Michael Khilkoff, who is imperial minister of ways and communica- tion of Russia. He has come to America to inspect its railway systems. He left Russia six mouths ago on a tour of inspection of the new trans-Siberian railway. After reaching Vladivostock he left the czar’s do- minions for Japan. ——— ree. Fusion Effected in West Virginia. Fusion has been arranged in West Vir- ginia. Democratic electors, St. Clair and Wceod, will be withdrawn and the populists, Bassell and Houston, substituted. I. C. Ralphsnyder, the first populist nominated for gevernor, has been instrumental in bringing the two silver forces together. When Bryan was making h's trip through West Virginia Ralphsnyder promised him that the fusion would be effected. THROUGH NORTHERN OHIO Ganvam of «Balt of Repreentative Buokoye Counties. Defections From Both Parties, but the Democratic Bolters Are of the Most Consequence. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. ZANESVILLE, Ohio, October 7, 1896. A careful investigation of the political situation in nine counties stretching across northern Ohio from east to west will give a fair idea of the conditions existing in the whole state, for these counties are fairly representative, in that some of them are strongly republican, others surely demo- cratic, and still others are very close, sometimes going one way, sometimes the other, by a small plurality. The céun- ties in which I have made such investiga- tion are Belmont, Guernsey, Licking, Knox, Richland, Seneca, Wood, Henry and Defiance. No large cities are located in any of these counties, but their citizens are made up chiefly of farmers and em- ployes of the many small manufacturing industries which have grown up in Ohio in the past dozen years, and which have flourished under the fostering care of a protective tariff, aided by natural gas, cheap fuel, ofl and transportation facili- ties. The direct beneficial influence of a protective tariff has nowhere been more positively felt than in Ohio, and it is not uncommon to find democrats who admit that such a policy is a help to their sec- tion, and yet they propose to vote for M Bryan because they believe in “‘free silver. Nowhere are the changes of political faith more noticeable than in these country sec- tions, “where everybody knows everybody else and how he stands politically. Stemming the Tide. The democratic organization ts counting on large accessions from the farmers of Ohio, but from my inquiries among this class I find that while some of them have flopped, others are in doubt, and the large majority will remain steadfast to their former political beliefs. Those who are in doubt now were for free silver six weeks ago, but the splendid campaign work by the republican committee,added to the influence of the press of the state and the speeches made by Major McKjaley to visiting delega- tions, have brought them to a better under- standing of the issues. Another condition that has greatly alded the republican ticket is that so many prominent business and professional men in these counties have come out for sound money, and in some instances are doing more effective campaign work than the leading republicans. For in- stance, in Bellmont county the president of a steel rolling mill is making speeches. In Guernsey county the president of the Cen- tral National Bank, a life-long democrat, is stumping the county for McKinley and sound money. Other Converts. Two prominent attorneys, who have al- ways been democrats, are doing the same thing, and a former candidate for Congress on the democratic ticket is working for the Palmer and Buckner ticket. In Licking county a prominent business man, who was in the southern army and has never voted anything but the democratic ticket, is ac- tively at work for McKinley. A democratic banker is for Palmer, the largest dry goods dealer, two lawyers and a doctor, who have been big guns in the democratic party, are now for McKinley. In Knox county two families of prominence as extensive farm- ers, who have prospered, have changed from democracy to republicanism. In this county there is a large Catholic vote, which is being influenced for the republican ticket this year. In Seneca county an ex-Con- gressman, who is a life-long democrat, is for Palmer, and {s making many conv to sound money. The Populist Vote. And so it goes in every community. I do not wish to be understood as implying that there have not been changes from repub- licanism to free silver, for there have been, but as a rule they are not prominent men in the communities. The democratic vote this year in Ohio will be swelled by 90 per cent of the 50,000 populist votes cast for Coxey for governor, and these acces- sions, added to the farmers who believe that free silver is a panacea for low prices for farm products, give encouragement to the democrats, and make the contest in the state interesting. In Ohio, as else- where, the chief gains to republicanism this year will be in the large cities, re- versing the usual order of things, and, in my judgment, these gains will overcome all possible disaffection among the farmers, the latter having been greatly overesti- mated. At Senator Sherman's Home. While at Mansfield I saw Senator Sher- man, who had just returned from a western trip and appeared to be thoroughly rested. In response to my question, the Senator said there could be no doubt about Ohio giving McKinley a handsome majority, and that Indiana,partly because of the strength of the national democratic movement, was perfectly safe. He spoke of the flattering receptions he had received in the silver states, and especially in Montana, but be- lieved the electoral votes of those states would go to Bryan, unless there was some radical change in the situation before No- vember 3. From information received from friends in all parts of the country, Mr. Sherman believes Maj. McKinley's election is assured, but he expressed the hope that the verdict would be so nearly unanimous that it would mean the end of the agita- tion of policies which so threaten the wel- fare of the country. In_the evening I attended a meeting of the Republican Sound Money Club of Mans- field, and heard the Senator talk to his neighbors and fellow townsmen. He had Invited Col. W. C. Cooper, formerly Con- gressman from this district, to make a speech to the club, and did not intend to say anything himself, but the audience in- sisted on hearing from him. In a somewhat dingy hall, with an audience largely com- posed of workingmen, the Senator made a speech which made a greater impression on me than any of the speeches he ever delivered in the Senate. He spoke with an earnestness and vigor which showed the intense interest_he feels in the issues of this campaign. The Senator’s remarks were fully appreciated by his fellow townsmen. es GEORGIA’S ELECTION. The Democratic Chairman Claims the State by 40,000. Chairman A. 8. Clay of the democratic executive committee of Georgia said last night: “In the state election Wednesday Geor- gia went democratic by-over 40,000 major- ity. Gov. Atkinson is re-elected by at least 40,000 majority over the combined opposi- tion, The remainder of the state ticket is elected by over 45,000 majority. The gen- eral assembly is composed of 175 members of the house ard 44 senators. The populists have elected 22 members of the house and 4 senators, and the republicans have elected 2 members of the house and 1 senator. The democrats elected 89 senators and 151 rep- resentatives. Georgia will give Bryan and Sewall a majority over the combined oppo- sition, and will elect all the democratic nominees for Congress.” —2ee—__ Bettlers’ Protective Association. The American Bottlers’ Protective Asso- ciation concluded its sessions at Chicago Wednesday.

From the Indtanapolis Journal. “What is a popocrat?” she asked. He started to explain to the best of his ability, and was getting along to his own satisfaction until he happened to notice her trying to squelch a yawn. “Perhaps I'm wearying you?” he asked. it isn't as interesting as I expected, she admitted. “I—I thought perhaps a Popocrat might be a young man who was not afraid to pop.” Which Will Win?

Concession to Construct a Railway Given by the Guiana Legislature. The official mail just received from British Guiana gives further details of the constrtction of a railway through ter- ritory over which it has been conceded by Britieh officials the jurisdiction of Great Britain is doubtful. The road pass- es through territory near the modified Schombergk line and outside of the “set- tled districts” to which Lord Salisbury re- fuses to apply the principle of arbitration. The Demerara Chronicle of September 16 gives a full account of the proceedings of the colonial legislature September 4, which culminated in the grant of a concession for a railway along the right bank of the Keituma river to the rich Barima gold fields, which have never been claimed by the colony until a few years ago. It was necessary to suspend the rules to enact the legislation, as -the requisite time for its consideration had not elapsed. The Kaituma river flows north into the Barima, fifty-five miles above the mouth of the latter, and {t was pointed out that the railway would reduce the journey, which now consumes five or six days, to two or three hours. The bill was rushed through by its pro- moters, notwithstanding the protest of some conservative members that It was not clear to whom the concession was being granted or the exact location of the line. The cnly amendment that was secured provided that the government could pur- chase the line after fifteen years. It is possible that this action may complicate the negotiations between the United States and Great Britain for an amicable settle- ment of the Venezuela boundary dispute, and it is said that a remonstrance from this government is a probable sequence. —_—_—__-e+___ McKinley Republicans Shut Out. Secretary of State McCaffery of Colorado yesterday afternoon gave a decision sus- taining the protest of the silver republicans against the use of the republican name and emblem by the McKjnley party. Should this protest be sustained by the supreme court, the McKinley people will have no ballot in this state, as they neglected to file their ticket before the time expired. peices Neel se AUCTION SALES OF REAL ESTATE, &c.
